I am in the process of Migrating an MS Site Server Commerce Edition
site to Commerce Server 2002.  I've moved the Membership Directory
users to an ADAM LDAP server and now I'm trying to create Profile
Definitions to map MSCS UserObjects to our ADAM LDAP directory.  I am
able to successfully create a Data Object under the Data Sources and
all our LDAP UserObject fields display correctly indicating that I am
able to connect to the LDAP objects.
I am also able to create a UserObject Profile Definition and map the
fields from the Data Source Object to Profile Properties.  The problem
I'm having is during the validation.  If I only have one property
mapped to an LDAP Class instance as the "Primary and Join Key" I can
successfully validate the Profile but if I include any of properties
then I get the following Error:

Invalid Profile
The profile service failed to start:
1:LDAP Provider: 0000208D: NameErr: DSID-031001CB problem
2001(NO_OBJECT), data 0, best match of:
'CN=Configuration,CN={ssjdde48584...}
2: Error reading error description

I Created a MSCSUser Container class within the LDAP server which
contains the following two attributes:
ShopperID(Unicode String) ---> Mapped to MSCS Profile Property
Shopperid(String)
UserPassword(Unicode String) ---> Mapped to MSCS Profile Property
UserPassword(String)

The MSCSUser instance objects are located within a OU=MSCSUsers folder
within the LDAP server and all the membership entries use
CN=emailaddress for DRN's.

So a DN for any MSCSUser entry is:
 CN=johnsmith@CompanyB,OU=MSCSUsers,O=Com
panyA

I understand that the validation process attempt to write an entry to
the data store.  How does the validation process know to write a CN
type object?

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.  I'm hoping that what is
said about being an MSDN subscriber and getting a reply within 2 business
days holds true.
